Key figures associated with 2009's "Miracle on the Hudson" (Captain C.B. "Sully" Sullenberger, Captain Jeffrey Skiles, Barry Leonard, Pam Seagle, Dr. Hilda Roque-Dieguez, Katie Couric, Allyn Stewart) gather on January 11, 2024 with moderator Kate Baldwin to reflect on the event. Topics include: Sullenberger's analysis of the incident and changes in aviation that have occurred in the last 15 years; how Couric got the first sit-down interview with Sullenberger about landing the plane in the Hudson River and overseeing the safe evacuation of all on board; passengers' recollections of the harrowing time between the plane losing power and landing in the Hudson; panelists' reactions upon learning that Clint Eastwood would direct the film "Sully" with Tom Hanks cast as Sullenberger; and the reasons why the flight's fate continues to resonate with the public in 2024.
